Q: Is there anyway of selecting the tab in mouse over tab menu according to what webpage you are on ?
A: Deluxe Tabs doesn't support API functions which can return the
selected tab aslo.
You can set "bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters
based on your link before you call your data file.
For example, move " var bselectedItem" and " var bselectedSmItem" parameters
from your data file to your code.
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=;
var bselectedSmItem=;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
You should define seltabs and selsmtabs using server side script.
You can also set it on every page before you call data.js file, for
example:
<TD vAlign=top align=left>
/* Select Tab */
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript1.2">
var bselectedItem=4;
var bselectedSmItem=3;
</script>
<SCRIPT src="data.js" type=text/javascript></SCRIPT>
</TD>
Q: I'm a registered user. I'm looking to make a space between dhtml cross browser menu buttons, I checked the FAQ which suggested using ["-"], between items but it didn't work. It deleted the dhtml cross browser menu items below it. I'm looking to put a space between
["||All Images","gallery_all.html", , , , "_self", , , , ],
and
["||Pricing & Ordering Info","gallery_pricing.html", , , , "_self", , , , ],
A: To add a separator you should
//--- Separators
var separatorImage=""; //for subitems (top items in vertical menu)
var separatorWidth="100%";
var separatorHeight="3px";
var separatorAlignment="right";
var separatorVImage="separator.gif"; //for the top items (subitems items in vertical dhtml cross browser menu)
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="2px";
var separatorPadding="";
You can create separators using menuItems (you can do it in Deluxe
Tuner, use "Add separator" button), for example:
["||All Images","gallery_all.html", , , , "_self", , , , ],
["||-"],
["||Pricing & Ordering Info","gallery_pricing.html", , , ,"_self", , , , ],
Q: I have just downloaded your trial version and am trying to use delux tuner using the windows xpstyle template.
I can only seem to get the top button showing as grey but can change colors of submenus in dhtml xml menu.
Am I missing something? ?ow do I get the top button showing the same as submenu buttons.
A: To change submenu colors you should change the following parameters:
var menuBackColor="#F2F3F2";
var itemBackColor=["#F2F3F2","#535353"];
and Individual Submenu Style:
var menuStyles = [
["menuBackColor=#F2F3F2","menuBorderWidth=0","itemSpacing=0","itemPadding=4px","smOrientation=undefined"],
];
For the top items you should change Individual Item style:
var itemStyles = [
["itemHeight=21px","itemBackColor=#F2F3F2,#535353"],
];
Q: I have used Deluxe tuner menu on a web page and facing two small problems
a) The separator I have used do not show up. This is supposed to be a black horizontal line below every menu item. The image name is sep.jpg
b) The submenu appears on the right and I am unable to figure out a way to get the submenu to appear on the left. My navigation is placed on the right panel so if the sub menu appears on right of drop down menu bar, it practically goes off the page.
Can you please help with this and let me know why this is happening ?
A: 1) You should set separators between main items:
["Home","testlink.html", "data.files/bul.jpg", "data.files/bul.jpg", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-"],
["About Us","", "data.files/bul.jpg", "data.files/bul.jpg", "", "", "", "", "", ],
And set:
var separatorVImage="data.files/sep.jpg";
var separatorVWidth="100%";
var separatorVHeight="1px";
var separatorPadding="0px";
2) You should set the following parameter:
var smViewType=2;
